North Fork Holidays from AU$4,102

In the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, travelling today comes with a few extra challenges. Keep in mind these valuable tips before hopping on your plane to North Fork:

• Research if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test.
• Requirements state that you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, even at screening checkpoints. Be prepared to adjust your mask to verify your identity when asked by a TSA employee.
• Rather than handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, place it straight on the reader yourself. When that's done, hold it up for inspection.
• You can take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. This will need to be taken out for screening.
• Place any personal items (like your phone and wallet) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during screening.
• Separate any food you have for X-ray scanning. Food items often set off the alarm. Placing them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to touch and inspect your belongings.
